@Kasi - what these like? Do they seem like they are 20oz? Sizing (42) makes it seem like they are huge

@Crispy-Heron
yes they 20oz heavy
Flat head sizes trend to run smaller
I try 42 was above my waist. All mine Flat Head tees are 44
depends on you how you wear it. -
@Kasi - thanks. I am a bit short so may go for 42

Hey guys, looking for some tips here.
I have a Flat Head demin jacket (size 40), it’s their storm rider. I love it, but it’s quite fitted, and I can only really wear a T shirt or a thin pullover under it which is fine, the Jacket is pretty warm and the fit is what I’m looking for.
I was down town on Friday and tried the single riders jacket from the Flat Head because I’ve been eyeing it for a while (also size 40). It feels amazing but I was wearing a UHF that day and I couldn't even get my arm in the sleeve. I wear a medium in IH and the size 40 jacket was rather small. I got the UHF off and with only a Henley on it fit real noice, but with the zip up, I couldn’t reach the side pockets
So, I am doing it right, the jacket is supposed to look amazing, but you can’t really move in it? Or, do you all generally size up in these? Will the hide soften over time to a degree where moving your arms in a functional way can be realized?

I’d 100% size up and have something that I can actually wear (and will conform to my body), rather than something that’ll look great in pics but can’t practically be worn. Horsehide will crease and ‘shrink’, but won’t stretch and get larger.

I had to size up to a 42 in my double rider jacket, the 40 was too short and a little tight. I’m a medium in IH.
I wanted to be able to layer a shirt or sweatshirt underneath and there was no chance with the 40, but the main thing was the length for me.

@NickD Nice, thank you. I see your post up there and that is the 42? Fits you like a glove. I like the idea of a leather jacket, but only being able to wear a Tee under it limits it's use in my opinion. Normally if it's warm enough for only a Tee, then it's not really leather jacket weather...or is it always leather jacket weather!?
@Kasi thanks for the comments, I see most guys my height and weight wear a 40 but I really can't imagine it's going to loosen to the point where I can fit a shirt or a sweater underneath it.
Cross question to IH leather Jackets: Does a M IH leather = 40 in the Flat Head? Anyone able to comment on that?
wow
